We're not talking about sports. We're talking about a scripted pro wrestling event.
It's shitting on the fans because after Bryan's return from injury, the fans clearly wanted Bryan instead of Reigns in the main event at WM. Regardless of Bryan's actual injury situation, if WWE was concerned about his health/safety/ability to continue on, then there's no reason to put him in the Rumble at all, especially if you want Roman to eventually get over.
They could have even still put both guys in the WM main event against Lesnar even if Bryan's health was an issue. Bryan was in a ladder match that night after all. Just because you don't want the title on Bryan long term (for health or any other reasons) doesn't mean he can't be in the main event at WM and/or hold it for a short amount of time. Then you can move Bryan on to something else if he's still able to go health wise.
Not to mention Reigns' push into the main event scene was very forced and rushed, which although not related to Bryan, was an additional reason why fans shit on Reigns' initial main event push.
